Zombie Fun for the Whole Family...or not.

Rating: 7/10 (27 May 2007)

So the movie begins with a view of Cilian Murphy's penis. That image alone would have been enough for any normal movie to be given a lower than 1 on my rating. But the scene was quick, and his penis was small, so I wasn't intimidated by it. So, after that scene, we find out that he was in a coma for who knows how long. He exits his hospital room, to find no one. Complete emptiness. He goes out side, still in hospital attire, to find that the streets of London are also completely empty. Well, as a run of the mill zombie movie would go, him being alone...guess whats going to happen-a zombie strikes. But never fear, because two people come to his rescue. And the survival begins from there. I won't spoil anymore.
This movie is well written, has some nice cinematography, and Cilian Murphy always is a good actor in my books. Some cons may include that the last half hour feels out of placed and rush...but it was still a great zombie movie. Go see it if you haven't yet. And then, heck, go see the sequel. It's guaranteed 100% less Cilian Murphy penis. And that's fun for the whole family. 7/10
